Privacy Policy

Introduction

Welcome to ChirpyWeb!

As part of our mission to help make engaging with your visitors and customers easier, Get ChirpyWeb collects and processes a lot of information. This Privacy Policy is intended to help you better understand how we collect, use and store your personal information—whether you are a customer or end user that uses ChirpyWeb’s products, applications, plug-ins or services (together, the “Services”), an end user that visits a website using our technology or whether you’re simply visiting this website. By using any of ChirpyWeb’s Services, or by dealing with a website using ChirpyWeb’s Services, you are agreeing to the terms of this Privacy Policy and, as applicable, the ChirpyWeb Terms of Service.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to our privacy practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. If we make material changes to this Privacy Policy, we will give you notice of such changes by posting the revised policy on this Website, and where appropriate, by other means. By continuing to use this Website or the Support Service after these changes are posted, you agree to the revised policy.

This privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”) explains how we collect, use, store, and disclose information about the end users (“End Users”) of websites (“Customers”) that use our Services.

Information from cookies and similar tracking technologies

What is a cookie? A cookie is a small amount of data, which may include a unique identifier. Cookies are sent to your browser from a website and stored on your device. We assign a different cookie to each device that accesses our website.

Why does ChirpyWeb use cookies and similar tracking technology?

  • We use cookies to recognize your device and provide you with a personalized experience on our websites, or otherwise through the Services. We also use cookies as part of the Services, for example to track subscriptions for our customers’ website.
  • We also use cookies to serve targeted ads from Google, Facebook, Bing, SourceKnowledge, and other third-party vendors.
  • Our third-party advertising partners use cookies to track your prior visits to our websites and elsewhere on the Internet in order to serve you targeted ads. For more information about targeted or behavioral advertising, please visit https://www.networkadvertising.org/understanding-online-advertising.
  • Opting out: You can opt out of targeted ads served via specific third party vendors by visiting the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Opt-Out page.
  • We may also use web beacons, software development kits, and other automated tracking methods on our websites, in communications with you, and in our products and services, to measure performance and engagement.

Please note that because there is no consistent industry understanding of how to respond to “Do Not Track” signals, we do not alter our data collection and usage practices when we detect such a signal from your browser.

For how long do we retain your personal information?

  • In general, we keep your personal information throughout your relationship with us. For customers, this means we will keep your information as long as you maintain an account on our platform. For partners, this means we will keep your information until you inform us that you wish to terminate your partner relationship with us. For our customers’ end users, we process your information solely as a data processor on behalf of our customer, and it is up to the customer to determine how long they will store your information in our systems.
  • Once you terminate your relationship with us, we generally will continue to store archived copies of your personal information for legitimate business purposes and to comply with the law, except when we receive a valid erasure request, or, if you are a customer, you terminate your account and your personal information is purged.

We will continue to store anonymous or anonymized information, such as website visits, without identifiers, in order to improve our Services.

What we don’t do with your personal information?

  • We do not and will never share, disclose, sell, rent, or otherwise provide personal information to other companies for the marketing of their own products or services.
  • Except as disclosed above, ChirpyWeb never sells or shares any end user information with individuals or companies other than the specific customer on whose website ChirpyWeb collected the end user information.
  • If you are a customer using ChirpyWeb’s Services, we do not use the personal information we collect from you or your end users to independently contact or market to your end users. However, ChirpyWeb may contact or market to your customers if we obtain their information from another source, such as from the customers themselves.

How do we keep your personal information secure?

We follow industry standards on information security management to safeguard sensitive information, such as financial information, intellectual property, employee details and any other personal information entrusted to us. Our information security systems apply to people, processes and information technology systems on a risk management basis.

No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your personal information.

Residents of the European Economic Area (“EEA”)

ChirpyWeb works with customers and end users around the world, including in the EEA. As part of our service, we may transfer your personal information to other regions, including to Canada and the United States. In order to ensure that your information is protected when transferred out of the EEA, ChirpyWeb relies on the EU-U.S. Privacy Shield (described in more detail below), as well as inter-company agreements between our various affiliates that may process your information on behalf of ChirpyWeb.

If you are located in the EEA, you have certain rights under European law with respect to your personal data, including the right to request access to, correct, amend, delete, port to another service provider, or object to certain uses of your personal data. If you are a customer, a partner, a visitor of ChirpyWeb’s websites, or a user of ChirpyWeb’s support services and wish to exercise these rights, please reach out to us using the contact information below. If you are an end user of a customer who uses ChirpyWeb’s platform and wish to exercise these rights, please contact the customer you interacted with directly — we serve as a processor on their behalf, and can only forward your request to them to allow them to respond.

Additionally, if you are located in the EEA, we note that we are generally processing your information in order to fulfill contracts we might have with you, or otherwise to pursue our legitimate business interests listed above, unless we are required by law to obtain your consent for a particular processing operation. In particular we process your personal data to pursue the following legitimate interests, either for ourselves, our customers, our partners, or other third parties (including our customers’ end users):

  • To provide customers and others with our services and applications;
  • To prevent risk and fraud on our platform;
  • To provide communications, marketing, and advertising;
  • To provide reporting and analytics;
  • To provide troubleshooting, support services, or to answer questions;
  • To test out features or additional services; and
  • To improve our services, applications, and websites.

When we process personal information to pursue these legitimate interests, we do so where we believe the nature of the processing, the information being processed, and the technical and organisational measures employed to protect that information can help mitigate the risks to the data subject.

Control over and access to your personal information

ChirpyWeb understands that you have rights over your personal information, and takes reasonable steps to allow you to access, correct, amend, delete, port, or limit the use of your personal information. If you are a customer or a partner, you can update many types of personal information, such as payment or contact information, directly within your account settings. If you are unable to change your personal information within your account settings, or if you are concerned about data collected as you visit ChirpyWeb’s websites or use our support services, please contact us to make the required changes. If you are a customer’s end user and wish to exercise these rights, please contact the customer you interacted with directly — we serve as a processor on their behalf, and can only forward your request to them to allow them to respond. It’s important to remember that if you delete or limit the use of your personal information, the Services may not function properly.

If you have any questions about your personal information or this policy, or if you would like to make a complaint about how ChirpyWeb processes your personal data, please contact ChirpyWeb by email at [email protected].

Changes to Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this privacy policy at any time, so please review it frequently. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon their posting on the website. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here that it has been updated, so that you are aware of what information we collect, how we use it, and under what circumstances, if any, we use and/or disclose it. If our business is acquired or merged with another company, your information may be transferred to the new owners so that we may continue to sell products to you.
